[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a rising senior at Westfield. Our kid seems to be okay with it, and we have no real complaints. Excellent student, athlete, musician, and enjoys the mix of kids from a lot of backgrounds. His core best friends are still mostly kids he knew from the AAP center middle school. He'd be fine at any of the schools around here. If I could afford to live in the zone, I'd rather send my kids to Chantilly. [/quote]

IDK how much you paid for your house, but most people are not priced out of Chantilly.  We have kids who went Carson / Chantilly for AAP, and I don't think the drop off in house prices is that noticeable when you drive down Centreville Road toward Herndon. [/quote]

PP here. Sorry if I burst your bubble, but when I said we couldn't afford to buy in the Chantilly neighborhoods, I meant it. We rent a small townhouse in a shabby pocket of a neighborhood that feeds to Westfield. We're part of the dreaded lower-income group. "Poors." We're so grateful for the AAP centers, because our kids qualified and have benefitted greatly from slightly more challenge, the ability later on in high school to stockpile a lot of AP credits for college, and to make friends with lovely, smart, ambitious kids.
